If that's true, I'm all for it, I guess they're trying to make up for loss in the capability of a high-reving V8..
edit: E46 M3 had an 8k RPM redline too, my comment is flawed lol

But you are correct about the HP/TQ comment. That tq curve is going to have to be ^ instead of a nice flat curve. remember the e46 m3 only had 262 tq right up to around redline and it made 333 hp. for power to be 415 at redline, the tq will only be in the 300s.
if this is all TRUE - the car will be a real monster when tuned to hold boost to redline - we are talking 600hp.
